The Spirit was happy and WOW all the way! We felt like royalty at times, the service was excellent, and it did not seem we were part of a big crowd..even though we were!

Food and Dining

We especially loved the specialy restaurants. The Tapanaki was a big hit with out group and delicious! Get your reservations early! Our favorite of the week was the French restaurant! Fabulous! Exceptional! Not to be missed. The kids loved the Raffles Buffet at all times. Windows was very nice.
